PSV vs Barcelona, Champions League: Final Score 1-2, Lionel Messi leads Barça to big European win

Barcelona will move on to the Champions League knockout stages as Group B winners thanks to a 2-1 victory over PSV Eindhoven. It was a very tough away night in Europe as expected, but Lionel Messi came up big with a goal and an assist to give his team the win in the Netherlands.
